i'd totally use this if it were ready for p2pool for dummays like me.would that be totally possible?

Simplest thing is to install wallet & p2pool on a separate machine, then point all p2pool miners at that machine. Essentially your p2pool "machine" is your "pool server" as far as BAMT & cgminer are concerned.

You can even add a backup "traditional pool" in cgminer for failover support.

Having wallet on BAMT is technically possible BUT it requires the blockchain. Downloading the blockchain on each machine is horribly inefficient and the constant read/write is going to kill usb drives.

for the love of all that is holy, DO NOT ever put a wallet on a bamt rig. there are many reasons you should not do this. don't do it.

If this pool2p thing requires a local wallet, then no it will not be supported on bamt, ever.

However like you said, there is no problem to point your BAMT rigs at a machine running it.

Any way to read from more than one sensor on a card? temperature shown in gpumon is from GPU core, right?

temp shown is whatever the cards sends in response to a request for "temp_0" or something like that, which is all that most GPUs have.if you'd like something else, describe it in detail and I'll be happy to give you a quote for the work.

I'd just like to see temperatures from sensors like in GPU-Z which reads temp. from 3 or 4 different sensors (core, memory, vrm?), of course it depends on the card, dual gpu cards have more. Reason why I'm asking is because core temps have usually been the lowest on my cards, memory 2-12C warmer. If my core temp. is 80C and mem temp is 82C it's fine for me but if my core temp is 80C and memory 90C+ then I'm not that happpy

If it is doable for you - how big of a bounty should I collect? ;]I think people with dual-gpu cards would also be interested.

the fee for this work will be one card with these multiple sensors you want read, or enough btc to acquire such a thing. too hard to write and test without any hardware.

My understanding is it is non trivial. Those values aren't exposed via drivers of ADL at all. They are internal values used for thermal management among other things. GPU-Z dumps a raw copy of the cards management registers and then parses it to find the values it is looking for.

thats the impression i got too, which i why i won't work on it without some hardware to test with

I guess I'm trying to understand how the BAMT/cgminer integration works.

Thanks,gigavps

integration is though the RPC API. cgminer makes data available via JSON RPC calls. cgminer makes those calls to get stats and statuses.

If something isn't available inside cgminer (like say fan speed %) for a particular product it won't be obviously available in BAMT either but other than that BAMT doesn't really know or care what is doing the mining. It reports what cgminer tells it to report.

However, I am a newb to linux...... I used GUIMiner before on windows 7 which was very simple.

I still can't see or understand how to setup the MGPUMON on a browser. Or remotely. I can only see it on terminal. I would pay pay 5BTC for a instructional video on setting up bamt COMPLETELY. I wish I can pay more! If any one else wants to add to this bounty.
